I haven’t been to the resort but I adore huatulco

Great resort. Crucecita is a fun little town with some nice bars & restaurants.

Love Huatulco

Cher same here.

Huatulco my paradise. Friends are there now. Secrets is the only Adults Only resort in Huatulco.
Weather there is always hot hot
& dry. The entire area is very laid back like Mexico
25 years ago.More Mexican Nationals & Canadians than US tourists.
If you stay @ Secrets the next Bay over La Bocana offers mud baths. An awesome experience.

Secrets Huatulco is awesome! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We stayed at Las Brisas both times. Quite enjoyed the fact no beach vendors allowed.

Leona Las Brisas has one of the most beautiful beaches as well. It is on my bucket list.

Sherry when you go pay extra for jr suite. Ocean view balcony with separate bedroom. I’ve been to ixtapa since and Pv. Will not go anywhere in Mexico again. Huatulco is my place. Perfect weather, clean and safe

I hear ya. Huatulco was designated a tourist zone the same time Cancun/ Riviera Maya 25+ years ago. It just didn’t take off like the Caribbean side .So it still offers the laid back old Mexico vibe. The locals say very little crime. They say that will change when the double lane highway thru the mountains brings the cartels !
I often travel solo. Huatulco is the only place I feel safe to be out & about unescorted
I went back to Riviera Maya Playa del Carmen area Feb 2020 after 5 yrs of Huatulco. Tourist/ commercial overload & escalating cartel violence.

Sherry don’t be fooled in Huatulco…. Friends of ours were held up by thieves wielding machetes on a path hiking to a beach a few years ago. Don’t get me wrong - I love Huatulco and felt very safe walking at night on my own - until this happened…. Granted it was to an isolated spot but one we had hiked several times before over the years - never again…. We haven’t been back since so hopefully an isolated incident but just beware!

Sandra this can happen anywhere. Canada included. I wouldn’t venture the bike paths where I live in the middle of the day!

Leona agree! It was just a good reminder for us as we were getting too comfortable thinking it was a “safe” area. I see you were at a resort which is a totally different experience than us being in a condo and hiking paths to isolated beaches.

I am dying to get back to Huatulco but have noticed that the direct flights are very rare these days or very expensive. Did the routes that used to fly there stop? I believe they were run by sunwing and other vacation package providers in the past.

Nicole Direct Flights to Huatulco were seasonal. Pre COVID.They didn’t usually start til late Nov or early Dec. sunwing was Tuesday only &west jet was flying twice sat & one weekday
air canada rouge only direct out of Toronto.
You may find seasonal directs out of Edmonton.
It is hard to say what will happen this year. Flights may be combined or cancelled if there isn’t sufficient demand.
Right now Canadian airlines have codeshare with aeromexico connecting thru Mexico City.
Flights only( no hotel )to Huatulco have always been $900. + in high season.

Sherry Thanks very much, this is incredibly helpful.

Nicole after I responded Escapes.ca posted Huatulco. west jet packages direct starting Nov 18 Tues & Sat

Sherry yessss
thank you

Nicole Huatulco doesn’t draw like PVR or Cancun or Cabo ! So it is low priority for Canadian Charters to service.Even if they book. They may end up cancelling or combining flights.
I love Huatulco but this season it will be wait & see.
You could try booking on west jet vacations or sunwing online for Edmonton or YYC & see what comes up.
You may find that there may only be directs out Toronto (the centre of the universe !
I just play around multiple dates/ providers til I find what I want. Must be careful with that you have to know the direct flight time as it doesn’t always show connections. If you are flying out of Vancouver even though it is on the west coast air canada will fly you via Toronto !
